The Power of Private Email: Why It Matters

Private email is a cornerstone of secure and confidential communication in an increasingly connected world. At StartMail, we understand the critical role private email services play in guarding you and your business from harm. Unlike free providers that mine your data or scan your inbox for target advertising, StartMail’s private email restores your trust.


Private email wouldn’t be possible without advanced encryption techniques. Encryption strengthens your defenses against hacking, phishing, and interception. This is why StartMail employs PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) encryption, which seals your messages both as they travel and when they’re stored. Emails are encrypted using a combination of public and private keys, making them exclusively accessible to one private key holder.


Our private email services were built with user privacy at their core, which means you can communicate freely, without fear of intrusion. By choosing StartMail, you are investing in the assurance that your personal conversations and professional exchanges are neither exploited nor monitored.

The benefits of StartMail’s private email

  • Ad-Free. Tracker-Free. Forever.

    Avoid Big Tech’s relentless tracking and profiling!

    User comfort is at the forefront of our business model and we refuse to interfere with your privacy or engage in intrusive behavior. Your privacy has always been our priority. StartMail will never track your email activity, profile you, or leave you vulnerable to pesky ads or cyber crime.

  • Email Anonymity

    Devise Anonymous Aliases effortlessly

    Generate disposable email addresses whenever you sign up for a new service. In the meantime, your main address stays private and spam-free.

  • Comprehensive Email Encryption

    Messages only you and your recipient can see

    Concerned about sharing confidential information via email? With StartMail, your data is in your control. Even if the recipient doesn’t use encryption, your communication remains private and accessible only to the intended party.

Guaranteed Privacy with PGP Encryption

  • PGP encryption is one of the most highly regarded encryption methods and nearly impossible to penetrate. It provides a public key to encrypt messages and a private key to decrypt them. In order to read the messages, your intended recipient must authenticate themselves with the correct private key.

  • PGP makes it extremely easy to detect fraudulent messages and prevent hackers from seeing and stealing your data. Be proactive and leverage our service against surveillance and unauthorized access. Take advantage of PGP with a StartMail private email address.

  • When you sign up for StartMail, we automatically assign you a passphrase that doubles as your account password. If you are sending emails to users lacking an encrypted email service (e.g. Gmail, Hotmail), you can still encrypt your message using a Password Protection method.
